How it’s different than server side “tool kit” of “developer kit” applications:

Server/client side vs. Hosted

Every toolkit product is a derivative of the application provider’s desktop solution. The toolkit is basically the guts of the solution without the user interface, there’s a benefit when performance is an issue because there’s less overhead for the server to load. Understanding the derivative nature of “toolkit” products may make you wonder why the desktop applications they’re based from are a fraction of the cost when they’re essentially the same thing. Server-side application APIs also have the same trappings of their desktop cousins; requiring constant updates, maintenance, extra servers and rack space. If you’re interested in paying $15,000+ (doesn’t include extra expense for server and infrastructure) for a repackaged $4500 application this is the solution for you!

TEC’s WS API is tied to enterprise address hygiene and mailing applications that provide far more functionality than any single “toolkit product”. We’ve tested all the leading mailing applications and we use the best, solutions from SAP, Quadiant, BCC, and GrayHair among others. If your organization were to purchase these applications and integrate them into your environment they would cost you about 5X. We believe you shouldn’t be penalized for improving your workflow, we also think your integrated solution should be able to expand as your organization needs become more complex. If you’re interested in paying less and getting more, TEC {WS} API was built for you.
